Chapter 351 We Need Super Maple
The impact of this loss turmoil lasted for a whole week. It was not until the next round of the league restarted that the discussion on social media about Piacenza's disastrous defeat to Inter Milan slowly came to an end.

However, this does not mean that Piacenza, who was defeated by Inter Milan and whose morale continued to be low, really came out of it.

Maybe it was because they were too dazzling before this game, and the dazzling performance almost slapped every media that was not optimistic about this newly promoted team. Therefore, after the team lost this time, the group of people who had been holding back their energy and preparing to watch Piacenza's jokes directly brought out the black history of everyone in the team.

Taking advantage of the various mistakes made by the players who were easily won by Inter Milan this time, almost none of the Piacenza team was not hacked. Even Liu Feng was exposed to many mistakes on the court.

Under the pressure of such public opinion, the Piacenza team, which has been going smoothly for a long time, finally suffered the greatest pressure since this season. It is rare for this group of young players to forcibly lift their spirits for a while.

The team's coach Conte didn't have a good solution in his heart. Apart from arranging training for the players on time and in a timely manner every day, he could only try to boost the morale of the team with bloody speeches, but unfortunately the results were minimal.

In fact, Conte is very clear about what the team needs most now, because when the news came from the team doctor that Liu Feng's recovery from his injury exceeded expectations, he clearly saw the bright expressions on the players' faces. Obviously, what these young players who can't stand alone need a leader.

However, although Liu Feng recovered very quickly, after the team doctor completed a series of examinations, he still cautiously gave Conte a suggestion to take another round of rest.

Therefore, even though Liu Feng kept assuring the coach that he was fine, his name was still not included in the latest round of rosters. He could only follow the arrangement of the team doctor and coach for the final warming and physical therapy for his injured right leg and calf.

Therefore, when the No.20 round of Serie A kicked off, there was still no Liu Feng in Piacenza's team.

However, in this round of competition, Piacenza's opponent is not a top team like Inter Milan, but Cagliari, which is now ranked seventh in the league, a mid-range team.

For Piacenza, who ranked fourth in the league after the last round, even in the absence of Liu Feng, they still have the strength to fight, at least in the eyes of fans and the media.

However, when the game really kicked off, the jaw-dropping scene was staged again.

As the visiting team for this game, Piacenza took the bus from their club to Cagliari on the day of the game. Since Cagliari is located in Sardinia in southwestern Italy, the road was quite bumpy.

This caused Piacenza to take a lot of time to enter the state after coming to the Sant'Elia Stadium. The players who had undergone a simple warm-up almost never met Conte's requirements for them to play.

When the staff came to the locker room door and knocked on the door, Conte could only bite the bullet and let the players go on the court when time was running out.

And what happened next directly echoed the worry in Conte's heart.

After the start of the game, Piacenza was unable to enter the state for a long time. When the opponent chose the kick-off, it took them 8 minutes to touch the ball for the first time, and then they behaved very amateurishly in the team's offensive organization.

Their opponent Cagliari, because of the home court advantage, showed a great desire to attack from the beginning. After testing Piacenza for 15 minutes, this team, which has been in good form recently, blew the charge against the visiting team.

At this moment, Piacenza as a whole has not yet entered the game state.

So, in the 205th minute of the game, Cagliari launched an attack from the center. After breaking through Nainggolan and Padalino's first midfield defense through a simple two-to-one cooperation, they directly chose to seek a breakthrough from the side.

The state of the game was obviously falling, and Wolfer, who was in the eyes of the opponent's winger, was knocked down because he kept retreating in the process of one-on-one with the opponent's winger.

When Astori had just had time to turn around and rush towards the ball, Cagliari striker Alessandro Matri, who had rushed all the way into the penalty area from the center, had already knocked him past him and stabbed the ball first.

Although Maurantanio reacted in time, he was still a step slow in the process of pressing down. The ball rushed into the goal from his armpit, and the home team Cagliari took the lead.

This goal also announced the protagonist of the game. In the case of Cagliari's full horsepower, the Piacenza team, which has been unable to enter the state for a long time, has already doomed their end.

Liu Jianhong, who was explaining the game, persisted in his last stubbornness and excused Piacenza in the following time. However, in the No. 60 minute of the game, after Cagliari seized the opportunity to score a goal again after Piacenza's frequent counterattacks in No. [-] minutes of the game, he was completely speechless.

When the whistle for the end of the game blew from the referee, the entire stadium was filled with the cheers of Cagliari fans. Piacenza's Expedition fans were speechless at the moment. Liu Jianhong in the commentary room and countless Chinese fans sitting in front of the screen watching the game also fell into silence.

After the game, Conte and Piacenza's players did not choose to be interviewed by the media again and hurriedly got on the bus home. The two consecutive losses after the five-game winning streak finally revealed the unstable characteristics of this young team.

After this game, whether on the official website of Piacenza in Italy or in the club fan organization spontaneously formed by fans on social media, countless Piacenza fans expressed their only appeal.

"We need Super Maple."

“We need Super-Feng!”

After two consecutive defeats in which the team had no power to fight back, there was no doubt among the fans of Piacenza about Liu Feng's role. All the people who hoped that the team would get better at this moment sent out their heartfelt shouts.

At this moment, in Piacenza's rehabilitation base, Liu Feng, who did not go out with the team to recuperate in the club, finally came to the green field again with the approval of the team doctor.
